A note from Jon: Alex and I have decided to slap all six parts of The History of the Seattle Mariners into one big 3-hour-40 minute cut, and we're now listing it publicly so you can watch it on your TV. It's totally free to watch, of course, but if you really want to get rid of some dough, check out our Mariners poster that was inspired by this series! It's $12, and it's only available through the end of September: store.dftba.com/collections/secret-base/products/t…

The Seattle Mariners are eminently lovable, profoundly human, and outrageously weird. This is the story of the most fascinating sports team on Earth, as told by Secret Base’s Jon Bois and Alex Rubenstein.

    I will still advocate that this deserves whatever kind of award possible at the ESPY's or literally whatever. This documentary single-handedly made me feel emotions for a team and a sport I've never had any real interest in before. Hands down one of the best sports media ever made as far as I'm concerned.

    I was there for Felix's last court. I was broke, out of a job and living in my grandparents house, two months from being kicked out. I posted on the Mariners Subreddit saying how much I wished I could go. And some good Samaritan messaged the day before the game offering me his extra ticket, his date backed out. Being able to be in the last Kings Court and say goodbye to one of my childhood heroes is a memory I'll always cherish.

    I like how they make a story about toilet Jell-o sound like a horror story, and a story about three guys throwing up during a baseball game seem like a landmark historical achievement
  • This video made me realize that Ichiro was a Mariners fan before he was a Mariner. Then he got to be a Mariner. And then he got to play alongside one of his heroes. And now Ichiro is still a Mariner, even after being retired for years, still with the team everyday. It is beautiful. It is like Ichiro is living the dream all of us fans who grew up watching Griffey Jr. as kids or adolescents had, to get to put on that Mariner uniform and play alongside the greatest Mariners of the 90’s, Junior and Edgar.
  • @JediMaterShark
    "This is not an endorsement of arson" sums up the Seattle Mariners quite nicely
  • @legogandalf5453
    Bro the reveal of Ichiro gives me absolute chills every time.

    2:27:13 "The Seattle Mariners are not competitors; they're protagonists." My favorite line. The perfect summary of this incredible video.
  • @richard_nj
    this is a philosophical piece about the meaning of sport more so than a documentary on the history of a baseball franchise
  • @msdabrenn
    I have never watched a baseball game in my life, but I have watched an almost 4 hour history of an unsuccessful baseball team several times.
  • They finally did it. The Mariners are back in the playoffs! I'm no Mariners fan, but I'm so happy for them, and I want to see them go far this October!
  • @EchoesDistant
    Ichiro's first MLB game in 2001: The Mariners defeat the Athletics 5-4. Ichiro's last MLB game in 2019: The Mariners defeat the Athletics 5-4. GO MARINERS!
  • Literally crying with joy when “Into the batters box, steps Edgar Martinez.”
  • @brody10123
    2:00:00. Exactly two hours into this series, two hours TO THE SECOND, is when we met Ichiro. Impeccable. I’m in awe.
  • We demand for a part 7. After seven thousand, six hundred, and fourty nine days, it has happened. Cal Raleigh to right field. The Seattle Mariners (86-70), have clinched a spot in the 2022 MLB playoffs.
  • @sendAJtospace
    People really still don’t get it with the Mariners. That 2022 team lost in the most grueling fashion possible. And those fans stayed, chanting “Let’s Go Mariners” after the end of it all anyway. That’s a type of love, from and for both an entire city and an entire team, that puts other fanbases of any and every sport to shame.
  • @sammyawe6678
    “Yankees got married to Marilyn Monroe and hung out with the rat pack. Mariners made toilet Jello and threw up because it was funny”
  • The fact that the Mariners won their 2021 opening day game on a walk-off walk is literally the most Mariners thing possible
  • @berr21able
    As of October 1st, 2022, 12:30 AM, the Mariners have clinched a playoff berth for the first time in 21 years, and did so on a walk-off home run. You have to love this team.
